The developmental biology of melanocytes and its application to understanding human congenital disorders of pigmentation.

Advances in dermatology - 1 Jan 2006

Hornyak Thomas J

Abstract excerpt

In the past 15 years, a fruitful interplay between the description of mutations associated with human congenital disorders of pigmentation, the discovery of the molecular basis of murine coat color mutants, and the elucidation of determinants of melanocyte development from the neural crest has led to rapid advancement in the understanding of these disorders and the developmental biology underlying them. The...
